Overview

The Mazak VCN-570C is a BT 40 vertical machining center with a long table: the listed X travel is 1,270 mm (50 in) over a 1,500 x 570 mm (59.1 x 22.4 in) table, with 570 mm (22.4 in) of Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z. The model is absent from Mazak's current lineup and is possibly an older one, so read what follows as listed figures.

Length is what separates it from a general-purpose 40-taper vertical. A 1,500 mm table takes a long extrusion, a rail or a row of four or five vises, and the listed load of 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) leaves margin for that workholding. Y travel equals the table depth, so nothing at the back edge is out of reach.

The spindle is listed at 12,000 RPM as standard with 15,000 RPM optional, and 22 kW (30 hp). There is no duty rating or torque in the table. Tool changes are listed at 1.3 sec tool to tool from a 30-tool arm-type changer; a 48-tool magazine is optional. Rapids are 42 m/min (1,654 ipm) on linear roller guides in all axes, and the control is given as MAZATROL SmoothG.

On a second-hand machine, establish which spindle and magazine were ordered, then measure the space. The listed footprint is 3,100 x 2,900 mm (122 x 114 in) and the weight 7,200 kg (15,873 lb). If the work outgrows it, the FJV-35/60 lists 59.06 in (1,500 mm) of X travel and a 5,512 lb (2,500 kg) table load with a CAT No.50 spindle.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

X travel of 1,270 mm (50 in) on a 1,500 x 570 mm (59.1 x 22.4 in) table suits long parts and multi-vise setups
Table load is listed at 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) across the 1,500 mm table length
1.3 sec tool to tool change with a 30-tool arm-type changer; 48 tools optional
Y travel of 570 mm (22.4 in) equals the table depth, so the full table surface can be reached front to back

Limitations

Z travel is 510 mm (20.1 in), short relative to the 1,270 mm (50 in) of X, so tall parts and long tools compete for height
Spindle power of 22 kW (30 hp) is listed without a duty rating or torque figure
Missing from Mazak's current lineup; confirm every listed figure on the machine itself
The listed footprint of 3,100 x 2,900 mm (122 x 114 in) needs checking against the available bay

Best For

Long aluminium extrusions, rails and plates up to 1,270 mm (50 in) Rows of vises along a 1,500 mm table for batch work Parts and fixtures up to the listed 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) Small-tool work at 12,000 RPM, or 15,000 RPM where that option is fitted

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How long a part can the VCN-570C machine in one setup?

The listed X travel is 1,270 mm (50 in) and the listed table is 1,500 x 570 mm (59.1 x 22.4 in). A part can be longer than the travel if it overhangs the cut area, but features must fall within 1,270 mm (50 in) of X, 570 mm (22.4 in) of Y and 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z.

02 What should I check on a used VCN-570C?

Start with the configuration, because the table lists options: a 12,000 RPM spindle or the 15,000 RPM one, and 30 tools or 48. Then confirm the travels and the 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) table load from the machine's documents. The model is not in Mazak's current lineup, so the listed figures cannot be compared with a current Mazak table.

03 What spindle does the VCN-570C have?

The listed spindle is BT 40, 12,000 RPM as standard with 15,000 RPM as an option, and 22 kW (30 hp). No duty rating and no torque value are listed, so the continuous output has to come from the machine's own spindle data.

04 How much room does the VCN-570C need?

The listed footprint is 3,100 x 2,900 mm (122 x 114 in) and the listed weight is 7,200 kg (15,873 lb). Add clearance for the doors, the tool magazine and chip removal, and plan lifting gear around the weight.
